THANK YOU all for standing with us in our defense of the Second Amendment!
In order to support other Second Amendment Patriots who have also pulled out of the ES&OS, Trop will be holding a free drawing. Simply bring in a receipt of purchase from any exhibitor who has withdrawn from the Show - dated sometime during the week of the show - and you will be entered into a drawing for a free Windham Weaponry AR.
To be clear, this is a free, no purchase necessary, drawing. But you must be of age and legally allowed to own a gun in order to enter or win.
Let's stand strong together!
The show is often referred to as the largest sportsmen's show in the world. Every year, over 200,000 people file through the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex during the first week of February.
This year the promoter of the show, Reed Exhibitions, based in the UK, has prohibited the display and sale of tactical weapons and high-cap magazines.
This has never happened at the show in the past and is probably orchestrated by two of the sponsors of the show, Progressive Insurance and Comcast.
Please do business with the companies boycotting the show. They have already paid for their space and there is a no refund policy. The space is mega expensive.
I already showed my appreciation yesterday by driving out of my way to Trops to buy the last brick of small pistol primers that they had in stock and some .22 lr ammo.
NICE!
The Commie Dems OWN this wave of voter wrath.
There will be nowhere to hide.
This will not simply “die down”.
Check out Windham's history and reputation. They are the best!
I expect this boycott to hit Drudge and national talk shows before the Sportsmen's show begins.
My guess is that they are flummoxed with this uproar among gun owners. They know they must disarm us for their Communist takeover to be successul...but we are standing fast.
In the end, it really doesn't matter what the city dwellers and liberals say about those of us who have guns...we aren't going to give them up.
The 2nd Amendment is not about hunting...it is about the protection of our freedom from those who would takeover our country...like the Communists (led by Obama and supported by Clinton).
Obama is firing conservative general officers by the scores from the military so he can replace them with his own useful idiots. But unless he murders those he removes, they are still a danger to his Communist coup because they will lead the resistance.
Cling to your guns and Bibles...CWII/WWIII is coming soon.
Jan Morgan is also giving away an AR-15:

And Doug Giles is giving away 007’s gun, a Walther PPK:

It’s good to see people giving away guns like this. :-D
I do not see anywhere if they were boycotting the Sportsmen's show, but still they are patriots.
Hunting was not done often in most cases. Of course exceptions.
Most meat needed to be eaten within 24
hrs of caught, especially if you hate salt.
Check out prices for meals. I only checked NJ.

They are quite good. I showed one to my boss just before the election and told him to buy one. We took it shooting and he was delighted with it and thought I walked on water. Then I told him to buy 20 mags and he did. I am golden now.
I just posted on Facebook page of a vendor that will not boycott because it was too hard to do. We will see how hard it is when Marxists confiscate our guns and history replays itself, just in the 20th century when tens of millions were murdered by Marxists, Socialists, National Socialists, and Communists.
bump for placemark for Feb 2
I wrote to Cabelas earlier today thanking them for their stand against tyranny
No refund, schmo refund. They can't unilaterally change the product (exhibition space) in a way that diminishes its value to the buyer and expect the buyers to still be bound by THEIR obligations under the contract. IMO they should be found liable for not only the space cost, but also the lost profit that would have been made at the show had they honored the original agreement, assuming the original agreement didn't prohibit the sale of these items. It's called "benefit of the bargain".
TROP are Patriots!
TROP are Patriots!
Since we’re not competing with anyone down your way up heah in Maine, Downeasters might be interested in our little show - FYI:
MONMOUTH FISH & GAME ASSOCIATION GUN SHOW
February 9 & 10, 2013
Located at 347 US Rt. 202 Near the Junction of Blue & Bog Roads in Monmouth, Maine
http://www.monmouthfishandgame.com/
For more information call 207-933-4484
We are raffling off ($5 for book of 3 tickets while they last - and they are going fast) a Windham Arms Model # R16M4FTT which is on hand and ready to transfer to the winner through a local FFL.
Drawing to be held Sunday Afternoon, Feb. 10th, at 2:45 PM.
I’m not a big AR fan but it is a fine looking rifle. Has the Picatinny rail all along the top of the action and gas block.
Admission still only $4; Children under 12 free; must be accompanied by an adult.
Refreshments available both days.
This is a relatively small show held in our clubhouse in a rural setting, but has been very popular over the years.
Some other dealers have sort of “overflowed” to their own show in Auburn, about 20 miles West of here - close enough for folks to do both of them.
All legal firearms are celebrated here, regardless of political correctness. Our range sees a lot of “Black rifles”.
One of our Members conducts AR Build seminars here at the club, and apparently has no lack of students.
It’s too bad your situation had to happen; if that show had an ounce of patriotism and testosterone, they would have sent those leftist sponsors packing before alienating so many of the Americans who make America - and these shows work. I can’t believe that alternative sponsors could not have been found.
